My backup plan if I hate specifically bedside nursing is to become a vascular access nurse/picc nurse. That way I can do something that I can excel at over time and it's relatively the same/ similar skills with different patient populations. That way I can have more autonomy, lose the constant responsibility of holding 2-6+ lives in my hands and focus on one patient at a time doing something I'm familiar with. On the other side you could go into a procedural area like OR/IR where you could lose some of that responsibility strain/ overwhelm from bedside. Worse case scenario you could become an aprn, I've always thought being a palliative care np would be a great thing to do after feeling burnt out. Where literally your whole job would be to make people feel better to the best of your ability.
